    I have a problem that I'm hoping you can help me with.

    When I come to GW, any thread, I'm getting a Western Union ad that completely fills the screen and won't let me do anything on the site until I close it. The first time it happened, it was just annoying, but now its gone beyond that to infuriating.

    Bagpuss has my email, and if she's amenable, I can email a screen shot.

    Grazi,

    Hi FanGirl,

    Go to this thread and make a report, you can add screen shots, though you need to make sure they don't go over the pic limits.

    http://forum.gateworld.net/threads/2...DETAILS/page44

    We like to keep all the ad issues to that thread.

    This is something Darren will have to take a look at.

      Hey mods,

      the past few days I've been having a problem when uploading an image in a post of mine. Every time I select a pic (from my computer) and choose 'upload' there's an error (a little red/orange icon). However, when I clear the list and try again, it works fine. It's not a really big deal since it still works but it's a minor annoyance and up until the past week it has never happened to me before. Just thought I'd share, in case some behind-the-screens changes are responsible or something.

        Nothing's been changed or upgraded.

        There's a long-standing problem with attachments.
        (Eg: the randomness where some attachments show as images ,and some show only as plain links in albums/posts,though they all still load to GW.)

        Hopefully vbb will fix this soon!

          Hey

          I've been having this problem as well but was just wondering could it be resolved by using a different file type? I'm trying to upload some pics JPG format, and when I go to preview post it only comes up as a link, is it worth trying to change the format or is it still an ongoing problem?

            You should be able to upload pics using these filetypes: jpg, jpeg, png, gif in attachment form from your computer or your pic host ( eg Photobucket) to GW,but the problem seems to be commonplace ,not just confined to one format.

            Sometimes you get lucky and the pic shows,but other times you just get the link.

              I was surfing the Forums and noticed, that for some reason I am unable to open the newest Episode Thread on Grimm "Twelve Days of Krampus". Everything else works, that thread however refuses to load all Day now. Just letting you know in Case I am not the only one with that Issue.

                The thread's been open since last night,and several others have posted,so this could be a browser glitch.

                Check your browser add-ons ,then if they're all up to date,clear your cache ,cookies & browser ,then try again using this link : Ep thread

                  Thats odd. Your link worked, but I still cannot get in the normal way. I will try fumbling around with the configurations of my Firefox then. Thanks for the help.

                    You're welcome!

                    If you're on FF 26, I know i had to update Shockwave Flash,if that's any help.If that plug in fails it can freeze ads and pages.

                      Is there by any chance a thread where one can just rant about random stuff that annoys you?

                        There are several threads in OT Chatter.

                        I think the one most recently posted to is this one : Post a pet peeve

                        Normal forum rules apply.

                          Oh. If the normal rules apply then I'll pass cuz I've got some pent up rage to release. I'll just do it here...
